Red Dead Redemption 2 is enjoying a moment in the spotlight, breaking peak concurrent player records on Steam. This surge comes courtesy of a special sale by Rockstar Games, with the game now available for just $15. Isn’t that just delightful?
As of now, Red Dead Redemption 2 has reached an impressive peak concurrent player count of 86,717, surpassing its previous record of 77,655, which was achieved back in November 2023. You can check out these numbers via SteamDB. It’s reassuring to see such interest in a title that has captured the hearts of many since its release.
The recent Rockstar Games Steam sale offers discounts up to 80% off various titles, but Red Dead Redemption 2 stands out with a whopping 75% discount. For those who haven’t yet experienced this masterpiece or maybe want to revisit it, this price seems like quite the steal…
This game first graced consoles in October 2018 and made its way to PC on November 5, 2019. Since then, it has collected over 175 game awards and sold more than 67 million units worldwide. Many players are eagerly awaiting updates regarding the much-discussed GTA 6. While it’s currently set for a launch in 2025, Rockstar’s silence on further details has left many asking if we might face delays ahead.
This speculation inspired one developer to create ‘Grand Taking Ages’ on Steam as a humorous jab at the wait for GTA 6. Isn’t gaming culture fascinating? Humor often finds its way into our shared experiences during these prolonged periods of anticipation.
